The Wedding Invitation

“SG, when the fuck did inviting the ex to the wedding become the move??!!”

Manny has a problem. He’s a great guy, so great in fact that most of his exes still consider him to be a friend.

One has just mailed him an invite to her wedding. He’s not happy about it.

“No idea,” I offer. “Guess [...]

“Jesus Broke Up My Marriage”

Long ago I decided that before I get married me and my future husband would seek couple’s counseling. There’s no way I want to enter a union with unresolved issues that could one day mean the demise of my marriage.
Whether it be our childhoods, relationships with parents (or lack there of), trust issues, low self [...]

A Very Christian Wedding

I’m a sinner. I make no qualms about that, but I’m not as big a sinner as you’d think I am based on my writings.

I didn’t smoke weed until this year and I’m almost 30.

I only drink socially and have a cap of 2 drinks. If I have anymore than that my friends will come [...]

The 5 Steps to Marriage

During a very heated debate with Manny, we found ourselves trying to our damnedest to pin down the order in which people meet, date and marry.
After a couple drinks, some animated arguments, agreeing to disagree, here is what we came up with:

Step #1 – Dating
You’ve announced yourself as being in the market and proceed [...]

Married People Shouldn’t Give Dating Advice

People who are married kill me when they try to give dating advice.
.
It’s like graduating high school ten years ago and coming back to your alma mater to tell the kids what it was like when you roamed those halls. All the teachers you had either died or retired. They renovated the classrooms. You’re favorite [...]

Baby, It’s Time To Get New Furniture

Don’t ask me why but I always find myself in situations where most people would flip out. I’m at a friend’s house on the couch, enjoying their cable when it became clear to me that their roommate was getting it “IN” in the other room. Being the person that I am, I simply turned [...]

I’d Cheat On My Husband

No marriage is perfect yet whenever we hear of infidelity we automatically assume that it is the man that is stepping out. It’s almost as if it’s acceptable.
.
“Oh, he cheated. That dog. Please pass the salt.”
.
But let it be a woman who cheats on her husband and she becomes lower than dirt. How dare she [...]

Don’t Marry For Love, Marry For Money

If people marry for love and 50% of them end up divorced perhaps we should start marrying for other reasons. I, for one, am leaning very close to marrying for money.
I recall a cool dude who told me that he wouldn’t mind if a woman was interested in him for his money and all that [...]

You’re Single Until You’re Married

Folks ask me all the time, “SG what are you going to do when you start dating someone. Will you still be ’says the single girl’”?
My response: “Yes!”
“But you won’t be single” they say.
“Yes the hell I will be. You are single until you are married.”
Very few people understand what I mean by this. I’ve [...]
